Nebraska Elk — U13 Antlerless
No more draws here — the last one was 2024
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission held its 2026 elk draw without U13 Antlerless. No current hunt code lists this unit; the Nebraska elk hunts on offer are drawn elsewhere. The odds, costs and harvest below are that history, kept for the record.
In 2024, hunters took 8 elk here. Its biggest hunt, U13-ANTLERLESS, put up 10 resident tags in the 2024 draw.
Your chance of drawing here
The last draw held in U13 Antlerless was 2024. These are that draw's chances for a first-choice resident applicant, kept for the record — nothing is on offer here for 2026.
Chances are from the 2024 draw (the last one held here) for a first-choice resident. "Points needed" = the cut in the last draw.

What these columns mean
- Your odds —
- the share of applicants at your point level who drew this tag in the 2024 draw. Not a forecast: quotas and demand move every year.
- The badge —
- plain language for that number. Likely draw 75% or better · Real chance 40%+ · Long shot 15%+ · Point builder below that, so you are applying mainly to bank a point · Undersubscribed means fewer first-choice applicants than tags, so everyone who applied drew.
- Points needed —
- the lowest point total that still got a tag in the 2024 draw, and how that cut has moved since the earliest draw we hold.
- Tags / applicants —
- tags on offer and first-choice applicants for them, as the agency published them. Under five tags the percentage is flagged, because one applicant either way swings it.

The country
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission does not publish a mapped boundary for U13 Antlerless, so there is no map to draw.
How the hunting has gone
What Nebraska Game and Parks Commission publishes for this area after each season — harvest statistics for everyone who hunted it, not draw odds and not a forecast. Nebraska Game and Parks Commission publishes these per hunt rather than per unit; the rows below add its own figures together, since a hunter holds one tag for the species in a season.
| Season | Harvest |
|---|---|
| 2024 | 8 |
| 2023 | 2 |
What the agency says about the area
NGPC split elk Unit 13 into Units 131 and 132 for the 2025 draw; the current Elk Hunting Units layer carries 131 and 132 but no 13, so the retired unit has no current boundary.
